Why don't they re-release...

Ceol na dTéad - Francie & Mickey Byrne



Another out of print Cló Iar-Chonnachta cassette.

Here's some info from the Standing Stones website:

"Francie and Mickey Byrne, from Kilcar in southwest Donegal, epitomise the Donegal duo fiddling style. Kilcar has long been renowned for its fiddling tradition. The brothers were also influenced by a travelling piper named Mickey Gallagher, a relative of the Dohertys. Francie spent a number of years in Scotland, like many of the Donegal players. The duo playing of the brothers mixed deadly accurate unison passages, octave playing, drones and the occasional harmony note. Their playing had a major influence on the duo fiddling featured on recent Altan recordings."

Worth a listen then.
